Basic Administrative Tasks

Basic administrative tasks prepare a minimal Sybase® Event Stream Processor environment for users.

Although some administrative tasks, such as starting a server, are accessible from within Studio, it is designed as a development environment and not a monitoring tool. Therefore, most administration for Event Stream Processor requires use of the command line utilities or direct interaction with files.

• Provisioning Users
  Provisioning users is a typical administrative task. Event Stream Processor integrates with your existing security infrastructure to authenticate users and grant them access to projects.
• Logging
  Configure log files at the cluster server level and project level. A cluster node may contain multiple projects, each with their own project log.
• Data Backup and Restoration
  Backup data offline or online, and view and restore data based on your system.
• Sizing a Log Store
  Calculate the size of log store you require. Correctly sizing your log store is important, as stores that are too small or large can lead to performance issues.
• Memory Usage
  To maximize performance, the project server ensures that only one copy of a record can exist. To further maximize performance, limit the amount of available memory to each shell process.
• Monitoring the Project Server
  Use the command-line interface to monitor the performance of a running instance of the project server.
